LOL, yeah. The garish purple is not much of a camouflage paint job!

We need a Spitfire Transformer, Powerglide?

Hurricane, Jetfire?

I need this in my life!

 

I just have to reiterate that the hollow parts on the wings are a non-issue in hand, I have not been affected by them at all in my visual appreciation. Same as how the feet looked clownishly huge in early shots but they're just fine in hand.

Then people started commenting on stubby arms because of the angle of them in my first 4 pics, it's just the old classic, see it in hand and you can make the best call. I do my best in my photos to replicate how it looks in hand, you know when you hold a figure in front of you, rotate it and pose it mid-air to find the angle that works for you or just to appreciate it for that moment.

All the best

OK that's some relief. This pic http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/attachments/27832279/ is the clearest I've seen the face... It just seems a shame they didn't really push the cartoon accuracy in this area in particular. The colour's a bit annoying too. But then I'm keen on fairly high-contrast in my bots so what do I know? That said, I've been really wanting a 3P to put out some viable alt heads for the seekers for ages! I must be the only one, but my understanding of them as characters was that they were all distinct and characterful (Starscream esp). <Sigh> I am alone in this world

He does look v nice otherwise, there's a huge amount right with it. Jet mode is close enough for me, a flat underside I can handle (am I right fellas?)


In other news, Huff arrived today, sitting in his Chinese packaging on my desk, just waiting for home time - ah  

 

That Liege is scarily spot on. Fantastic choice of mold and colour. Looking forward to the finished piece.

Many, many thanks you lovely fucking lot.

@Maz - crazy good pics of Meteor. That is a ridiculously dynamic and expressive robot and you're showing off how like a pro.

 

British WW2 Aerialbots,

Silverbolt = Lancaster
Rest of the team = Spitfire, Hurricane, Mosquito (jet version ) and a Meteor

 

My fingers are crossed for you.

Keep the positive thoughts going. The gym sounded like a good idea. Anything that can get you out the house. I have always found exercise gives me a buzz.

Won't matter if it's not comparable to other people, as long as you get the benefit from what you are doing.

What about making a realistic bucket list? Things that are achievable.

It's maybe a Transformer you can have a great robot or alt mode but not both.

 

I'm off on a stag for the next few days.

Limited net access. I guarantee kapow/ id toys get their grotesque figures while I'm gone....

 

Loving your Trypticon pictures and the video.

How did you manage to get him back from your daughter for your latest pictures?

Tally Ho! Sounds very cool.

Maybe a P51 in there?

 

I knoooow the year's far from over yet buuut I couldn't resist getting a little 2017 contest fun.

 

2 lists would probably help, the first being things I can do, the second being things I should stop doing, or at least reduce the time I spend doing.

Getting myself into a state because of what other people my age boast about online that they've done would likely be number 1 on the list of things I need to stop doing.

 

And awesome @motorthing man, what a haul <3
Glad it went okay @Toadimus Prime, great @Napalm is great, and argh about Meteor (I don't want one. I don't want to start to seek again. But @Maz makes it hard, as always)(hate that guy)(that's a lie) (+ once MT will show me their Skywarp I'll be like "OMG").

 

Cheers man. And by not going to bed! Even 9yr olds must succumb to the lure of sleep, no matter how hard they resist.

Ah mate, that's amazing!

 

Where's Dirge?

Love it!

It is good that you can identify what needs to change, the 2 lists would be good to get you started, but don't focus on making the things happen so much that you make yourself ill. It would be an aim, not what you have to do.

It's good to see you being positive.

 

Many thanks dude =)
It was fun to do haha.

lmaoloooolXD

Thanks!

 

I fear she may get revenge for your devious tactics.................

 

Finding the balance between making this whole thing fun and not taking it so seriously that it has the opposite effect will be a key. I have thought of going full Swerve and making it a series of quests  

 

I certainly have no desire to start again with the Seekers at MP scale, I am so many quidmonies in deep on the 6 of them already - and Fetid Storm and Sunburn too lest I forget. But this was Starscream and he's a bit special, and also it's MakeToys and I dislike missing out on their particular brand of genius at this scale - I still rankle at my lack of Despotron - so Meteor was always gonna get me  

All the best
Maz

 

When they get to Skywarp I'll fold. I think I'll cope with the Robo-back/wings much better when they are black.

 

I need the quest of losing weight!

And getting more exercise.

And playing more with my Transformers! Need a good fiddle with them.

A very fair point, but I think if I was to buy 1, I'd want them all.

I-gear being the example, I loved their AcidStorm and Sunstorm as well as the original 6
